Do you plan your professional appointments and meetings with internal and external participants up to date in Outlook and then still have to take care of other processes within the framework of visitor management?

Not if you use our Outlook Add-In “Visitor Registration”!
Because our add-in either does this completely on its own – or you can quickly change the special details and services for the meeting in the integrated Outlook add-in at the same time.

The result is: All parties involved, whether visitors, receptionists, room & catering service, site security, etc., are informed, resources such as parking and rooms are reserved, systems such as WIFI or access systems are prepared for the upcoming visit – completely automatically and according to your operational specifications.

And if things turn out differently than planned – you can simply make the changes, such as rescheduling or adding more participants, in Outlook as usual – and we’ll take care of it.

Areas of application

Visitor pre-registration and appointment

Pre-register and manage visits and visitors directly via Outlook (create, postpone, cancel, etc.)

Reservation of services (WLAN, parking, rooms, etc.)

Automated sending of invitations to visitors (incl. QR code, directions, information)

Calculation of the required instructions

Change of dates and direct updating of information

Proposals in case of changes for the adaptation of the services

Role-controlled and person-specific authorizations

Automated assignment of access rights and determination of the required visitor badges

The choice of technology is critical. We have chosen the one that ensures you the greatest benefits – today and especially tomorrow!

The technologies found in the Microsoft environment are currently divided into two – and fundamentally different. On the one hand, local installations of Outlook are available, but browser- or web-based technologies are also possible. The shift to web-based applications is happening rapidly. Mixed forms are now not uncommon.

For local use cases, the so-called VSTO add-in technologies are used, while web add-in technologies are used for web-based use cases. In turn, other add-in technologies are available in the MICROSOFT TEAMS application area.
The differences between the above technologies are serious.

In the VSTO environment, the majority of providers rely on add-in technology that is “hard-wired”: the functionality of the add-in resides in the local Outlook installation. This means that for each change, even for small functions, such as adaptation of labels, changes to mandatory fields, additional or different mask elements, etc., the add-ins must be completely rewritten.

  • and rolled out

need to be. These necessary process steps are the absolute cost drivers in the operation of add-ins.

This is another reason why we at gis have implemented a completely different strategy for our customers. The .secure.Outlook add-in is based on web technologies. This means: the above mentioned three very cost-intensive and permanently repeating process steps have to be done only once – all changes, adjustments, behavior and rule changes can be done on the server side and no further actions, which involve enormous efforts, are necessary.

Another reason is that today we are already considering the possible variances and deployment scenarios in your companies regarding the use of a

  • Local Microsoft Outlook
  • web-based Microsoft Outlook
  • web-based Microsoft Teams

can support. The Outlook add-in is already web-based now – and the new versions will support the above scenarios as uniformly and transparently as possible.

In summary, the web-based .secure.Outlook Add In offers the following benefits:

Massive cost, resource and time savings for ongoing operations in the event of operational, process or compliance-related adjustments

Homogeneous, uniform operation of the add-in, regardless of the selected personal Outlook use

Current, most modern and trend-setting technology

Consistent authorization, policy and process specifications across all system boundaries
